Find of the Day: 2004 HPA Turbocharged Volkswagen R32

Those who’ve been keeping a close eye on the Mk4 R32 market will be well aware that the vehicles seem to have really taken off recently, commanding numbers in the low teens for ratted-out models, and high teens for anything that’s seen a reasonable amount of care. Every once in a while, though, you stumble upon one that actually seems to be priced right. Today’s Find of the Day is just the R32 many of us have been looking for.

Over the past 12 years, this particular R32 seems to have had a pretty good life. Modifications are mostly tame and valuable- like the KW Coilovers, Blue Haldex Controller, and Neuspeed Rear Sway Bar- making us believe that the car’s owners were loving parents. Luckily for us they were also a bit mad, installing an HPA FT360 Turbo kit just one year after original purchase. Factor in that it’s only got 83,000 miles, and it all adds up to a very attractive proposition.

This R32 is currently for sale on the Seattle, Washington edition of Craigslist for a seemingly quite reasonable $17,500. If we were in the same timezone, we’d have probably bought it already.

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

PZM 73rd Rally Poland Kicks Off

The WRC is in Poland and after only one stage there are three Volkswagens in the top five. Today’s special stage at the Mikolajki Arena is the first stage, but the rally doesn’t begin in earnest until Friday. Today’s super special stage was less than two minutes long, and less than a second separates the top five drivers. Hyundai Motorsport’s Thierry Neuville tops the charts today, followed closely by Volkswagen’s Andreas Mikkelsen. Sebastien Ogier and Jari-Matti Latvala are in fourth and fifth, respectively. Expect Ogier to climb the rankings, though. Not only did he win the rally last year, he has won every year since 2013. And with rain expected on Friday, Ogier’s chances are even better. “If it’s a bit wet then I hope I can make some good times,” said Ogier earlier today. “The best would be some good rain during the night so it’s a damp surface and then not too bad weather during the day so specators can enjoy the show without being too wet.” If it is dry, though, speed is on ...
